Very nice these CSS Adapters! The walkthru package was excellent.
I did notice one problem with the pure CSS menu that I didn't have with previous javascript menu code I found on the net. You can demo the issue by cranking up the font size and reducing the size of the browser window. When you hover over some of the menu
elements near the right or bottom edge of the browser they disappear off the edge of the window. The javascript menu I used in the past would reposition its child menus either above or to the left of the parent if it detected they wouldn't fit on the screen.
Apart from this, arguably minor issue, the menu works well.
Thanks, George. My wife and coding partner, Heidi, did a lot of the walk through stuff. I'll pass along your kudos.
With regard to the menu issue... have you considered contacting
wokket . He's done some work on this very topic,
http://forums.asp.net/thread/1428996.aspx. Frankly, I'd love it if someone could make some progress on this topic. You'll notice I did try to use wokket's script... but couldn't quite get it to work. Maybe you'll have a bit more luck or can suggest how
we should best attack this.
In any case, write back and we can brainstorm more about this. It's a great topic to discuss.
